UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 1 7

ORGANIZATION

The plan of instruction is so adjusted as to allow any
who choose, to omit the study of the Greek and Latin Clas-
sics, substituting a more extended course in Physical Science,
History and the Modern Languages. The students in each
class will be divided into two sections, corresponding to the
two Courses of Study, and distinguished as the Classical and
the Scientific sections.

The Regular Course, for all students, extends through
four years, at the end of which time those who pass a good
examination in prescribed studies are admitted to a degree —
those who have pursued the entire Classical course, to the
degree of Bachelor of Arts, and those who have pursued
the entire Scientific Course, to the degree of Bachelor of
Science.

Students who may desire to attend the recitations of
particular departments, without becoming candidates for
degrees, are allowed to do so, provided they have the requi-
site preparation for the studies of those departments, and
become subject to the laws of the University. This arrange-
ment is designed to meet the wants of those whose age, or
circumstances may prevent them from pursuing either of the
regular courses, but who are desirous of obtaining the lib-
eral culture which the studies of a portion of the course
will give them. Special care is taken to give such per-
sons the instruction which they require.

Members of the Senior Class are permitted, upon suffi-
cient reason given to the Faculty, to substitute for the
studies of the regular course, such other courses ot instruc-
tion, in which classes may be formed, as may especially fit
them for the studies which they intend to pursue after grad-
uation.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

ADMISSION.

Candidates for admission to the University are expected
to furnish satisfactory testimonials respecting character ; and,
if from] other colleges, certificates of regular dismission.

No person will be admitted to the Freshman Class who
has not completed his fourteenth year, or to an advanced
standing without a corresponding advance in age.

The Monday and Tuesday before Commencement, and the
Wednesday before the opening of the following term, are
the regular times for examining candidates. Examinations
may take place at othertimes at the discretion of the Faculty.

PREPARATORY STUDIES.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE CLASSICAL COURSE.

Candidates for admission to the Classical Course will be
examined in Geography and American History, English
Composition, Latin and Greek Grammar, Four Books of
Caesar's Commentaries or Cornelius Nepos, Six Books of
Virgil's ^neid. Four of Cicero's Orations, — two against
Catiline, the one for the Poet Archias, and the one on the
Manilian Law, — Three Books of Xenophon's Anabasis,
Arithmetic, Algebra as far as Quadratic Equations, and the
first Three Books of Robinson's Geometry. The attention
of students intending to enter the University is called to the
fact that the Freshman Class begin Algebra at Quadratic
Equations, and begin Geometry at the Fourth Book.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SCIENTIFIC COURSE.

Candidates for the Scientific Course are required to sus-
tain a thorough examination in those studies which are
taught in our English High Schools, including Algebra as

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 1 9

far as Quadratic Equations, and three books of Robinson's
Geometry; and are strongly recommended to pursue the study of
Latin^ at least one year, as a preparation for the study of English
and other modern languages.

Persons who wish to pursue studies in this city or vicin-
ity, preparatory to admission to the University, will find
ample facilities for so doing, under the advice and direction
of the Faculty.

Any student who may be admitted to the University
under conditions; as also any student who, after admission,
may have shown himself deficient in any department of
study, will be required to make up his deficiencies under a
private tutor, who shall be selected by the Faculty. All
existing deficiencies of this nature will hereafter be noted
in the catalogue. Examinations of delinquent students will
be held on the third Saturday after the beginning, and the
third Saturday before the close, of each term.

GENERAL VIEW OF THE CURRICULUM.

One who desires to understand the work which the Uni-
versity attempts to perform, may be referred to the tabular
statements, already given, of the courses of study which
are prescribed for students. It seems appropriate, however,
that special attention be called to some features in the sev-
eral departments of instruction.

THE DEPARTMENT OF METAPHYSICS.

Intellectual and Moral Philosophy are taught mainly by
lectures. Propositions embodying an outline of these sub-
jects, with a condensed discussion of each, are dictated to
the class. Copious illustrations of the topics are then given,
with full opportunities for questions and discussion on the
part of the class, until the doctrine set forth is completely
understood. The design of the course is to fix convictions
in the student's mind regarding the reality, certainty and
limits ©f human knowledge, and show that man has amoral
and intellectual constitution, existing in the germ, before the
processes of thought and action begin.

In furtherance of these objects, recourse is constantly had
to the history of thought on the topics discussed, with a
view to set forth the gradual progress, through the ages,
toward definite and scientific conceptions of man's nature.
Care is taken to put over against each truth taught, its antag-
onistic error; and, also, to select illustrations of these sub-
jects from common life, so that the student, in acquiring a
knowledge of the mental and moral constitution of man^
shall be, at the same time, gaining that practical knowledge
of men which shall conduce to his success in the business, or
profession, to which he looks forward.

26 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE CLASSICAL DEPARTMENT

Aims, by the careful reading of the Greek and Latin clas-
sics, and by assiduous practice in writing Greek and Latin
prose, to give the student such familiarity with the classical
tongues, as shall unlock to him the treasure-house of ancient
thought and feeling ; and, at the same time, fit him to acquire
a more complete mastery of those modern languages which
are so largely derived from a classical source. The practi-
cal features of Greek and Roman life are made a matter of
careful study ; and the classics are further utilized by mak-
ing them supplement other courses of study — Aristotle,
Plato and Cicero being read in connection with instruction
in Rhetoric and Mental and Moral Philosophy.

THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY.

Although the Faculty of Instruction embraces no officer
who is distinctively charged with the care of this depart-
ment, an ample course of historical studies is provided for
the student. Instruction is given in Greek and Roman His-
tory in connection with the Classical Department. Mediaeval
and Modern History are taught in weekly lectures which
cover three entire terms. The study of the English Language
and Literature is necessarily approached from an ethnolog-
ical and historic point of view. In the Senior year an
entire term is devoted to the study of History — lectures
being given on Physical Geography, Ethnology, and on a
series of fundamental topics which include an outline sur-
vey of the forces, moral and physical, that have resulted in
modern civilization, and in the formation of the state sys-
tem of Europe and America. Another term is divided
between Political Economy and the Constitutional Law of
England and the United States.

THE DEPARTMENT OF RHETORIC

Is regarded as an organic whole whose reciprocally depend-
ent parts are :

I. The Laws of thought or Logic.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 27

2. The Laws of Expression, or, in the abstract. Rhetoric,
in the concrete, Literature — both, of course, presupposing,
for the English student, a minute and thorough acquaint-
ance with the English Language.

3. The Laws of Utterance or Elocution.

In accordance with this conspectus, the student is taught,
from the outset of his college course, to analyze his mental
processes and adapt his words to his thoughts, his tones and
gestures to his words. Particular attention is paid to the
study of the English Language in its origin and develop-
ment, and in its use by such writers as Chaucer, Shakspeare,
Bacon and Milton — whose works are studied with the same
care as those of Horace, Sophocles, Plato and Homer.

In connection with this department, orations are pro-
nounced before the University, by students in the third term
of the Junior, and the first and second terms of the Senior
year, — each student being required to prepare and deliver
at least one oration in each term.

During the Freshman year, there is a regular weekly
exercise in Elocution. Members of the Junior and Sopho-
more classes are required to present original essays twice,
at least, in each term. These essays are, as a general rule,
read and criticised in the presence of the writer ; and are
freely used for class-room illustration of Rhetorical excel-
lences and defects.

THE DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAGES

Embraces a course of at least two terms in French and two
in German, for every student who is a candidate for a degree.
The extent and thoroughness of this course have already jus-
tified the introduction of French text-books in Physics and
Political Economy. It is proposed to pursue the same plan,
as far as practicable, with reference to the German ; and
thus render the student's acquaintance with these languages
more accurate and complete, by making them the medium
of acquiring other branches of education.

While the philological study of these languages is held
constantly in mind, such colloquial drill is given, as may
prepare the student for using them in the business of life.

28 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS.

During the first two years in the College Course, the
classes have a continuous drill in Pure Mathematics, begin-
ning with the generalizations of Higher Algebra and clos-
ing with the Calculus. Then follow Mathematics as applied
to Natural Philosophy and Astronomy. While the disciplin-
ary exercises of the student are necessarily abstract, it is
the design of the officers in charge of this department to
show, by lectures and illustrations, that the formulas of
Mathematics are the keys of natural phenomena, and that
they underlie the practical arts of life. It is further believed
that Mathematics, like Politics, are best learned in their his-
torical development. The discovery and history of formulas
are, therefore, made the frequent theme of class-room con-
versations.

The separate course for Scientific students includes the
study of some general treatise on the Philosophy of the
Mathematical Sciences.

THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE.

In the Department of Natural Science, instruction is
given by Lectures. Zoology and Physiology are studied
by the Senior Class during the first term. An outline of
the general principles of Zoology, embracing the character-
istics and methods of classification of the animal kingdom,
is followed by a more special study of Human Physiology
and Anatomy, with constant reference to the structure and
functions of the inferior animals, seeking thus, by making it
a study of comparisons and analogies, to develop the exist-
ence of a comprehensive plan in organic nature. Constant
attention is given, in this department, to the principles of
Hygiene.

During the first term, a course of lectures is given to the
Junior Class on Chemical Physics, followed, during the
second term, by a course of daily lectures on General Chem-
istry. The properties of the elementary bodies, and their
more important combinations, are fully illustrated by ex-

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 29

periments in the lecture-room. Special attention is given
to the economic and industrial applications of chemical
science. Frequent opportunities are afforded for visiting
the various manufacturing establishments of the city,- in
which chemical processes are practically applied.

During the third term, a course of daily lectures is given
to the Senior Class on Geology, illustrated by Guyot's
Wall-maps and the extensive Lithological, Mineralogical
and Palaeontological Collections of the Cabinet, represent-
ing all the explored portions of the earth's crust.

ANALYTICAL LABORATORY.

To supplement the instruction given to undergraduates
in General Chemistry, a Laboratory has been provided and
furnished with the requisite apparatus, for the use of those
who may wish to pursue a more extended course of theoret-
ical and practical Chemistry, by conducting their own ex-
periments and investigations, under the direction of the
Professor.

Special students will be admitted to the Laboratory for
instruction in the theory and practice of Chemical Analy-
sis, qualitative and quantitative, the application of Chemis-
try to Agriculture, Pharmacy, the Mechanic Arts, the Assay
of Ores, etc. For further particulars respecting this depart-
ment, application may be made to the President, or the Pro-
fessor of Chemistry.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.

It is the aim of the Faculty, in connection with the dis-
cipline of the intellect, to inculcate a pure morality, and
the "great truths 'and duties of Evangelical Christianity.
The public duties of each day are opened at 9 o'clock, a. m.,
with reading of the Scriptures and Prayer, in the University
Chapel. The students are required to attend, unless spe-
cially excused by the Faculty.

30 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

In the Greek Department there is a weekly recitation in
the Greek New Testament.

Weekly prayer meetings are held by the students in a
room, centrally located, which the Trustees have provided
for that purpose.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places
of worship, at which their sons, or wards, shall regularly
attend on the Sabbath.

GEOLOGICAL AND MINERALOGICAL
CABINETS.

These Cabinets, containing over 40,000 carefully selected
specimens, are an encyclopaedia of the sciences which they
illustrate. They were collected by Professor Ward, during
six years of extensive foreign travel, and during many care-
ful visits to a large number of the most fruitful American
localities. Having been compiled, from the first, upon a
plan which contemplates the most complete illustration of
every point in these two departments of inorganic nature,
it is believed that they offer opportunities to students in
these sciences, unsurpassed in this country.

The Cabinet of Geology commences with a collection
of over 3,000 rocks, arranged in orders and families, in
explanation of the science of Lithology. Every rock spe-
cies, as recognized by the latest authors, is contained in this
series ; and all points of interest in technical or economic
Geology, are amply illustrated.

Another series of rocks presents those which are, to some
extent, characteristic of the several geological formations.
Other series are geographical in their character, and show
the student the mineral composition of some typical geolog-
ical region.

A valuable collection of rocks, collected by Prof James
Orton, illustrative of the Geology of the Andes, has been
recently added to the Lithological section of the Cabinet.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

The collections of Fossils are from the standard locali-
ties in Europe and America, and represent the animal and
vegetable life Avhich covered the surface of our planet dur-
ing each of the great geological periods.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is, tlmt it contains
plaster copies, perfect in form and dimensions, of all the
well-known genera of fossil qviadrupeds.

A section of the Geological Cabinet embraces a series
of models, maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fos-
sils, intended to illustrate the lectures which are given upon
these subjects.

The Cabinet of Minerals is equally rich and comprehen-
sive. It begins with several extensive series of specimens
intended to illustrate the subjects of Crystallography, and
the physical properties of minerals, and contains about
5,000 choice specimens, representing four-fifths of all the
species known.

CABINET OF ARCHEOLOGY.

The foundation has been laid for an Archaeological Cab-
inet, by the purchase of a small, but well-authenticated, col-
lection of flint and bronze implements from the drift region
of Abbeville and St. Acheul, in France. To this cabinet
some specimens of the stone implements of the American
Indians have been added; and it has recently been enriched
by the addition of a very choice collection of stone imple-
ments from the vicinity of Copenhagen — the genuineness of
which is attested by the most eminent Danish archaeologists.

LIBRARY.

The Library of the University is open daily, from 8 to
9 A. M., and on Saturday, from 10:15 to 12 a. m., for consul-
tation and for the drawing of books. All the students have
free access to the Library, and are aided in consulting it by
the Librarian and other members of the Faculty.

32 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

RATHBONE LIBRARY FUND.

Gen. John F. Rathbone, of Albany, has given to the
University the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, the
annual income of which is appropriated to the increase of
the Library. In the purchase of books, the preference is
given to those works which are demanded by the officers
and students for the successful prosecution of their inquiries
in the various departments of study.

THE SIBLEY LIBRARY.

At the last Commencement of the University it was
announced that Hiram Sibley, Esq., of Rochester, had prom-
ised to erect a fire-proof building, at an expense of not less
than seventy-five thousand dollars, for the accommodation
of the Library and Cabinets. The plans for this building
are being drawn, and it is expected that it will be com-
menced, at least, during the current academic year.

RECITATIONS AND EXAMINATIONS.

The recitations are held from 9:15 a. m., to 12:15, each
class having three daily exercises of one hour. The num-
ber, or length, of these exercises may be increased at the
discretion of the Faculty. On Saturday, the classes attend
in the Lecture- room but one hour.

An exact daily record is kept of the attendance, conduct
and recitations of each student, as well as of the sufficiency
or insufficiency of the excuses rendered for delinquency.
Summaries of these records are made for every term and
year. Being kept in a permanent form, they will deter-
mine the standing of each student at any period of his con-
nection with the University, and, in the end, will exhibit a
complete history of his College course, for subsequent ref-
erence.

Examinations are conducted by a combination of written
and oral exercises. In the Greek and Latin Departments,
students are required to make written translations, in the

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. ^^

presence of the examining officer, of passages not previously
read. The regular examinations are as follows:

1. Of all the classes, at the close of the first and second
terms.

2. Of the Senior Class, four weeks before Commence-
ment.

3. Of the other Classes, the week before Commencement.

PUBLIC EXERCISES.

1. Prize Declamation, by the Sophomore Class, on the
Monday evening preceding Commencement.

2. Commencement on the Wednesday preceding the
Fourth of July.

EXPENSES.

Parents who send their sons to the University are recom-
mended to secure for them, during their College course, the
influence of a Christian home, so far as this is practicable.
Rooms which afford ample accommodations for two stu-
dents, can, however, be secured, in buildings designed
especially for this purpose, for f i.oo per week. Boarding
can be obtained in private families for from $3.50 to $5.00
per week. The Janitor of the University will furnish its
patrons with all necessary information respecting rooms
and boarding.

Tuition, per term, including incidentals, $20.00.

The rules for payment of tuition, established by the
Trustees, require the settlement of all bills at the beginning
of each term ; that students in the partial course pay full
tuition ; and that orders for tuition on scholarships be pre-
sented as soon as received. No deduction is made for
absence.

34 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

A large number of students find profitable employment
in the city, in teaching private pupils and classes, and in
various other occupations ; thus enabling them to provide,
in considerable part, for the expenses of their education.
Students who have a practical acquaintance with aiiy of the use-
ful a?'tSy are able to procure constant and re77iunerative employment
in the city.

Indigent students for the ministry, regularly approved
by churches, receive assistance from the New York Baptist
Union for Ministerial Education, and, under certain con-
ditions, free tuition from the UniA^ersity, which has set apart
40 scholarships for this purpose.

Other indigent students, of good character, are occasion-
ally assisted from funds at the disposal of the President.

Parents and guardians are earnestly requested to exercise
a caieful supervision over their sons or wards, and to dis-
criminate between necessary and unnecessary expenses.
Experience proves that nothing has a more unfavorable
influence upon a student's moral conduct, and habits of
study, than the unrestrained use of money.

PREMIUMS, EXTRA STUDIES, ETC.

DAVIS PRIZE MEDALS.

The sum of $1,000 has been given to the funds of the
University by the Hon. Isaac Davis, LL. D., of Worcester,
Mass., the annual income of which is, by the direction of
the donor, to be expended in purchasing two gold medals
of unequal value, to be given to the two members of the
graduating class whose orations, on Commencement Day,
shall exhibit, respectively, the first and second grades of
excellence in thought, composition and delivery combined.

THE STODDARD PRIZE MEDAL.

ORGANIZATION

Three courses of study are open to members of the
University :

I. The Classical Course, extending through four years ;
at the expiration of which time, those who have satisfac-
torily met the requirements of the Faculty are admitted to
the degree of Bachelor of Arts.

II. The Scientific Course, extending through four
years, and embracing no Greek, and only so much Latin
as is essential to the successful prosecution of the modern
languages and the mastery of scientific terminology. In
the place of Greek and Latin, a more extended course of
study is prescribed in Physical Science, Mathematics, His-
tory, and the Modern Languages. Those who satisfactorily
complete this course, are admitted to the degree of Bache-
lor of Science.

III. The Eclectic Course, designed for students who
may desire to attend the recitations of particular depart-
ments, without becoming candidates for degrees. Such
students are admitted, provided they have the requisite
preparation for the studies of those departments, and be-
come subject to the laws of the University. This arrange-
ment is designed to meet the wants of those wdiose age, or
circumstances, may prevent them from pursuing either of
the regular courses, but who are desirous of obtaining the
liberal culture which the studies of a portion of the course
will give them. Special care is taken to give such persons
the instruction which they require.

18 UNIVERSITY OF EOCHESTER.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION.

Candidates for admission to the Uniyersitj are expected
to furnish satisfactory testimonials respecting character ;
and, if from other colleges, certificates of regular dismission.

ISo person will be admitted to the Freshman Class who
has not completed his fourteenth year, or to an advanced
standing without a corresponding advance in age.

The Monday and Tuesday before Commencement, and
the Wednesday before the opening of the following term,
are the regular times for examining candidates. Examina-
tions may take place at other times at the discretion of the
Faculty.

to any existing class.

UNIVERSITY OF KOOHESTEK. 19

A fair equivalent for the above requirements will, of
course, be accepted, but candidates for admission are advised
to conform, literally, to the requirements of the catalogue.
Upon their examination for entrance, and in their subse-
quent instruction, it will be taken for granted that they
have done so.

Persons w^ho wish to pursue studies in this city or
vicinity, preparatory to admission to the University, will
find ample facilities for doing so, under the advice and
direction of the Faculty.

Any student who may be admitted to the University
under conditions ; as also any student who, after admission,
may have shown himself deficient in any department of
study, will be required to make up his deficiencies under a
private tutor, who shall be selected by the Faculty. All
existing deficiences of this nature will be noted in the
catalogue. Special examinations will be held on the third
Saturday after the beginning, and the third Saturday before
the close, of each term, for the accommodation of students
wdio may hav^e been absent from the regular class examin-
ations, or wdio may have failed to pass those examinations.

GENERAL VIEW OF THE CURRICULUM.

One who desires to understand the work which the Uni-
versity attempts to perform, may be referred to the tabular
statements, ah-eady given, of tlie conrses of study which are
prescribed for stndents. It seems appropriate, how^ever,
that special attention be called to some features in the sev-
eral departments of instruction.

THE DEPARTMENT OP METAPHYSICS.

[nteliectual and Moral Philosophy are taught mainly by
lectures. Propositions embodying an outline of these sub-
jects, with a condensed discussion of eacli, are dictated to
the class. Copious illustrations of the topics are then given,
with full opportunities for qnestions and discussions on the
part of the class, until the doctrine set forth is completely
understood. The design of the course is to fix convictions
in the student's mind regarding the reality, certainty and
limits of human knowledge, and show that man has a moral
and intellectual constitution, existing in the germ, before
the processes of thought and action begin.

In furtherance of these objects, recourse is constantly had
to the history of thought on the topics discussed, with a
view to set forth the gradual progress, through the ages,
toward definite and scientific conceptions of man's nature.
Care is taken to put over against each truth taught, its an-
tagonistic error ; and, also, to select illustrations of these
subjects from common life, so that the student, in acquiring
a knowledge of the mental and moral constitution of man^
shall be, at the same time, gaining that practical knowledge
of men which shall conduce to his success in the business,
or profession, to which he looks forward.

26 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE CLASSICAL DEPARTMENT
Aims, by tlie careful reading of the Greek and Latin clas-
sics, and by assiduous practice in writing Greek and Latin
prose, to give the student such familiarity with the classical
tongues, as shall unlock to him the treasure-house of an-
cient thought and feeling ; and, at the same time, fit him
to acquire a more complete mastery of those modern lan-
guages which are so largely derived from a classical source.
The practical features of Greek and Roman life are made a
matter of careful study ; and the classics are futlier utilized
by making them supplement other courses of study — Lon-
ginus, Plato and Cicero being read in connection with in-
struction in Rhetoric and Mental and Moral Philosophy.

THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY.
Although the Faculty of Instruction embraces no officer
who is distinctively charged with the care of tliis depart-
ment, an ample course of historical studies is provided for
the student. Instruction is given in Greek and Roman
History in connection with the Classical Department. Me-
diaeval and Modern History are taught in weekly lectures
which cover three entire terms. The study of tlie English
Language and Literature is necessarily approached from an
ethnologic and historic point of view. In the Senior year
an entire term is devoted to the study of History — lectures
being given on Physical Geography, Ethnology, and on a
series of fundamental topics which include an outline sur-
vey of tlie forces, moral and physical, that have resulted in
modern civilization, and in the formation of the state sys-
tem of Europe and America. Another term is divided
between Political Economy and the Constitutional Law of
England and the United States.

THE DEPARTMENT OF RHETORIC
Is regarded as an organic whole whose reciprocally depend-
ent parts are :

UNIVEESITY OF ROCHESTEK. 27

1. The Laws of tli ought or Logic.

2. The Laws of Expression, or in the abstract, Rhetoric^
in the concrete, Literahtre — both, of course, presupposing,
for the English student, a minute and thorough acquaint-
ance with the English Language.

3. The Laws of Utterance, or Elocution.

In accordance with this conspectus, the student is taught,
from the outset of his college course, to analyze his mental
processes and adapt his words to his tlioughts, his tones and
gestures to his words. Particular attention is paid to the
study of the English Language in its origin and develop-
ment, and in its use by such writers as Chaucer, Shakspeare,
Bacon and Milton — whose works are studied w^itli the same
care as those of Horace, Sophocles, Plato and Homer.

In connection with this department, orations are pro-
nounced before the University, by students in the third
term of the Junior, and the lirst and second terms of the
Senior year — each student being required to prepare and
deliver at least one oration in each term.

During the Freshman year, there is a regular weekly
exercise in Phonetic Analysis, Phonography and Elocution.
Members of the Junior and Sophomore classes are required
to present original essays or oral dissertations twice, at least,
in each term. These essays are, as a general rule, read and
criticised in the presence of the writer ; and are freely used
for class-room illustration of Phetorical excellences and de-
fects.

THE DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAG-ES

Embraces a course of at least two terms in French and two
in German for every student who is a candidate for a de-
gree.

While the philological study of these languages is held
constantly in mind, such colloquial drill is given, as may
prepare the student for using them in the business of life.

28 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE DEPARTMENT OP MATHEMATICS.

During the first two years of the College Course, the
classes have a continuous drill in Pure Mathematics, beain-
ning with the generalizations of Higher Algebra and clos-
ing with the Calculus. Then follow Mathematics as applied
to IN^atural Philosophy and Astronomy. While the disci-
plinary exercises of tlie student are necessarilj' abstract, it
is tlie design of the officers in charge of this department to
show, by lectures and illustrations, that the formulas of
Mathematics are the keys of natural phenomena, and that
they underlie the practical arts of life. It is furtlier be-
lieved that Mathematics, like Politics, are best learned in
their historical development. The discovery and history of
formulas are, therefore, made the frequent theme of class-
room conversations.

The separate course for Scientific students includes the
study of some general treatise on the Philosophy of the
Mathematical Sciences.

THE DEPARTMENT OP NATURAL SCIENCE.

In the Dej^artment of Natural Science, instruction is
given by Lectures. Zoology and Physiology are studied by
the Senior Class during the first term. An outline of the
general principles of Zoology, embracing the characteristics
and methods of classification of the animal kingdom, is
followed by a more special study of Human Physiology and
Anatomy, with constant reference to the structure and
functions of the inferior animals, seeking thus, by making it
a study of comparisons and analogies to develop the exist-
ence of a comprehensive plan in organic nature. Constant
attention is given, in this department, to the principles of
Hygiene.

UNIVERSITY OF KOCHESTER. 29

more important combinations, are fully illustrated by ex-
periments in the lecture room. Special attention is given
to the economic and industrial applications of Chemical
science. Frequent opportunities are afforded for visiting
the various manufacturing establishments of the city, in
which Chemical processes are practically applied.

During the third term, a course of daily lectures is given
to the Senior Class on Geology, illustrated by Guyot's
wall-maps and the extensive Lithological, Mineral ogical
and Palseontological Collections of the Cabinet, represent-
ing all the explored portions of the earth's crust.

ANALYTICAL LABORATORY.

To supplement the instruction given to undergraduates
in General- Chemistry, a Laboratory has been provided and
furnished with the recjuisite apparatus, for the use of those
who may wish to pursue a more extended course of theoret-
ical and practical Chemistry, by conducting their own ex-
periments and investigations, under the direction of the
Professor.

Special students will be admitted to the Laboratory for
instruction in the theory and practice of Chemical Analy-
sis, qualitative and quantitative, the application of Chemis-
try to Agriculture, Pharmacy, the Mechanic Arts, the Assay
of Ores, etc. For further particulars respecting this de-
partment, application may be made to the President, or the
Professor of Chemistry.

MORAL A^l) RELIGIOUS CULTURE.

It is the aim of the Faculty, in connection with the dis-
cipline of the intellect, to inculcate a pure morality, and the
great truths and duties of Christianity. The public duties
of each day are opened at 9 o'clock a. m., with reading of
the Scriptures and Prayer, in the University Chapel. The
students are required to attend, unless sj^ecially excused by
the Faculty.

30 UNIVERSITY OF KOCHESTER.

In the Greek Department there is a weekly recitation in
the Greek 'New Testament.

Weekly prayer meetings are held by the students in a
room, centrally situated, which the Trustees have provided
for that purpose.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places
of worship, at which their sons, or wards, shall regularly
attend on the Sabbath.

GEOLOGICAL AND MINERALOGIGAL CABINETS.

The Cabinet of Geology commences with a collection of
over 3,000 rocks, arranged in orders and families, in ex-
planation of the science of Lithology. Every rock species,
as recognized by the latest authors, is contained in this
series ; and all points of interest in technical or economic
Geology, are amply illustrated.

The Lithological section of the Cabinet also contains a
valuable series of rocks, collected by Prof. James Orton,
illustrative of the Geology of the Andes.

UNIVEKSITY OF ROCHESTEK. 31

The collections of Fossils are from tlie standard locali-
ties in Europe and America, and represent the animal and
vegetable life which covered the surface of our planet dur-
ing each of the great geological periods.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is, that it contains
plaster copies, perfect in form and dimensions, of all the
well-known genera of fossil quadrupeds.

A section of the Geological Cabinet embraces a series of
models, maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fossils,
intended to illustrate the lectures which are given upon
these subjects.

CABINET OF ARCHEOLOGY.

The foundation has been laid for an Archaeological Cab-
inet, by the purchase of a small, but well-authenticated col-
lection of flint and bronze implements from the drift region
of Abbeville and St. Acheul, in France. To this cabinet
some specimens of the stone implements of the American
Indians have been added ; and it has recently been enriched
by the collection of a very choice collection of stone imple-
ments from the vicinity of Copenhagen— the genuineness of
w^hich is attested by the most eminent Danish archaeologists.

LIBRARY.

32 UJS-IVEKSITY OF EOCHESTER.

RATHBONE LIBRARY FUND.

Gen. John F. Rathbone, of Albany, lias given to the
University the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, the
annual income of which is appropriated to the increase of
the Library. In the purchase of books, the preference is
given to those works which are demanded by the officers
and students for the successful prosecution of their inquiries
in the various departments of studj^

THE SIBLEY LIBRARY.

A fire-proof building, the gift of the Hon. Hiram Sibley,
of Rochester, is now being built, at an expense of about
one liundred thousand dollars, for the accommodation of
the Library and Cabinets.

RECITATIONS AND EXAMINATIONS.

The recitations are held from 9:15 a. m., to 12:15, each
class having three daily exercises of one hour. The num-
ber, or lengtli, of these exercises may be increased at the
discretion of the Faculty. On Saturday, the classes attend
in the lecture-room but one hour.

An exact daily record is kept of the attendance, conduct
and recitations of each student, as well as of the sufficiency^
or insufficiency of the excuses rendered for delinquency.
Summaries of these records are made for every term and
year. Being kept in a permanent form, they wdll deter-
mine the standing of each student at any period of his con-
nection w^ith the University, and, in the end, will exhibit a
complete history of his College course, for subsequent ref-
erence.

Examinations are conducted by a combination of written
and oral exercises. In the Greek and Latin Departments,
students are required to make written translations, in the
presence of the examining officer, of passages not previously
read. The regular examinations are as follows :

UNI\ERSITY OF KOCHESTER. 83

1. Of all the classes, at the close of the first and second
terms.

2. Of the Senior Class, four weeks before Commence-
ment.

3. Of the other classes, the week before Commencement.

PUTBLIO EXEECISES.

1. Prize Declamations by the Sophomore Class, on the
Monday evening preceding Commencement.

2. Commencement, on the Wednesday j^receding the
Fourth of July.

EXPEl^SES.

Parents who send their sons to the University are recom-
mended to secure for thein, during their College course, the
inliuence of a Christian home, so far as this is practicable.
Pooms which afford ample accommodations for two stu-
dents, can, however, be secured, in buildings designed
especially for this purpose, for $1.00 per week. Boarding
can be obtained in private families for from $3.50 to $5.00
per week. The Janitor of the University will furnish its
patrons with all necessary information respecting rooms
and boarding.

Tuition, per term, including incidentals, $20.00.

The rules established by the Trustees, with reference to
the payment of tuition, require the settlement of all hills
at the heginning of each term ; that students in the Eclectic
Course pay full tuition ; and that orders for tuition on schol-

34 UNIVERSITY OF KOCHESTER.

arships be presented as soon as received. I^o deduction
is made for absence.

A large number of students Und profitable employment
in the city, in teaching private pupils and classes, and in
various other occupations ; thus enabling them to provide
in considerable part, for the expenses of their education.
Students who have practical acquaintance with any of the
useful arts, are able to procure constant and remunerative
employment in the city.

Indigent students for the ministry, regularly approved
by churches, receive assistance from the l^ew York Baptist
Union for Ministerial Education, and, under certain con-
ditions, free tuition from the University, which has set
apart 40 scholarships for this purpose.

Other indigent students, of good character, are occasion-
ally assisted from funds at the disposal of the President.

Parents and guardians are earnestly requested to exercise
a careful supervision over their sons or wards, and to dis-
criminate between necessary and unnecessary expenses.
Experience proves that nothing has a more unfavorable
influence upon a student's moral conduct and habits of
study, than the unrestrained use of money.

Mathematical teacher and author — has given to the Univer-
sity the endowment foi- a gold medal of the value of one
hundred dollars, which is to be awarded to the student in
each graduating class (having been three years a member
of the University, and having maintained a good standing
in all the studies of the curriculum) who sliall have passed

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

Tpttiialwn*

Three courses of study are open to members of the
University :

I. The Classical Course, extending through four years ;
at the expiration of which time, those who have satisfactorily
met the requirements of the Faculty are admitted to the degree
of Bachelor of Arts.

II. The Scientific Course, extending through four years,
and embracing no Greek, and only so much Latin as is essential
to the successful prosecution of the Modern Languages and the
mastery of scientific terminology. In the place of Greek and
Latin, a more extended course of study is prescribed in Physical
Science, Mathematics, History, and the Modern Languages.
Those who satisfactorily complete this course, are admitted to
the degree of Bachelor of Science.

III. The Eclectic Course, designed for students who may
desire to attend the recitations of particular departments, with-
out becoming candidates for degrees. Such students are
admitted, provided they have the requisite preparation for the
studies of those departments, and become subject to the laws
of the University. This arrangement is designed to meet the
wants of those whose age, or circumstances, may prevent them
from pursuing either of the regular courses, but who are desirous
of obtaining the liberal culture which the studies of a portion of
the course will give them. Special care is taken to give such
persons the instruction which they require.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

HEQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION.

Candidates for admission to the University are expected to
furnish satisfactory testimonials respecting character; and, if
from other colleges, certificates of regular dismission.

No person will be admitted to the Freshman Class who
has not completed his fourteenth year, or to an advanced
standing without a corresponding advance in age.

The Monday and Tuesday before Commencement, and the
Wednesday before the opening of the following term, are the
regular times for examining candidates. Examinations may
take place at other times at the discretion of the Faculty.

FOR THE CLASSICAL COURSE.

Swinton's Progressive English Grammar; Guyot's Common
School Geography ; Swinton's Condensed History of the United
States ; Robinson's Arithmetic ; Robinson's University Algebra
— to Quadratic Equations ; Robinson's Geometry — three books ;
Harkness's, or Allen and Greenough's, Latin Grammar; Four
books of Caesar's Commentaries ; Four Orations of Cicero — of
which one shall be that for the Poet Archias, and one, that for
the Manilian Law ; Six books of Virgil's ^neid ; and 39
sections in Arnold's Latin Prose Composition ; Hadley's, or
Crosby's, Greek Grammar ; Three books of Xenophon's Anabasis,
and one book of Homer's Iliad.

FOR THE SCIENTIFIC COURSE.

The same as for the Classical Course, with the exception of
the requirements in Greek.

FOR THE ECLECTIC COURSE.

Sufficient preparation to profit by the instruction given to any
existing class.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

A fair equiv^alcut for the above requirements will, of coarse,
be accepted, but candidates for admission are advised to con-
form, literally, to the requirements of the catalogue. Upon
their examination for entrance, and in their subsequent

One who desires to understand the work which the University
attempts to perform, may be referred to the tabular statements,
already given, of the courses of study which are prescribed for
students. It seems appropriate, however, that special attention
be called to some leatures in the several departments of
instruction.

THE DEPARTMENT OF METAPHYSICS.

Intellectual and Moral Philosophy are taught mainly by
lectures. Propositions embodying an outline of these subjects,
witli a condensed discussion of each, are dictated to the class.
Copious illustrations of the topics are then given, with full
opportunities for questions and discussion on tlie part of the
class, until the doctrine set forth is completely understood. The
design of the course is to tix convictions in tlie student's mind
regarding tne reality, certainty and limits of liiiman knowledge,
and show that man has a moral and intellectual constitution,
existing in the germ, before the processes of tliouglit and action
begin.

select illustrations of these subjects from common life, so that

. -4 29

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTEE.

the student, in acquiring a knovvledge of the mental and moral
constitution of man^ shall be, at the same time, gaining that
practical knowledge of men which shall conduce to his success in
the business, or profession, to which he looks forward.

THE CLASSICAL DEPARTMENT

Aims, by the careful reading of the Greek and Latin classics,
and by assiduous practice in writing Greek and Latin prose, to
give the student such familiarity with the classical tongues, as
shall unlock to him the treasure-house of ancient thouglit and
feeling ; and, at the same time, tit him to acquire a more
complete mastery of those modern languages which are so largely
derived from a classical source. The Classics are studied not in
a spirit of blind veneration for antiquity ; but as illustrating the
universal laws of language, as presenting the most perfect
specimens ot merely literary composition, and as laying open the
sources from which have been derived invaluable elements in
modern civilization, bpecial attention is given, on the one hand,
to the historic development and the most important speculative
results of Greek Philosophy; and, on the other, to the growth,
the general principles, and the permanent intiuence of lioman
Jurisprudence. The classics are further utilized by making
them supplement other courses of study — Longinus, Plato and
Cicero being read in connection with instruction in Rhetoric
and Mental and JMoral Philosophy.

THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY.

Although the Faculty of Instruction embraces no officer who
is distinctively charged with the care of this department, an
ample course of historical studies is provided for the student.
Instruction is given in Greek and Roman History in connection

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

with the Classical Department. Mediaeval History is taught
in weekly lectures which cover three entire terms. The
study of the English Language and Literature is necessarily
approached from an ethnologic and historic point of view. In
the Senior year an entire term is devoted to the study of History
— lectures being given on Physical Geography, Ethnology, and
on a series of fundamental topics which include an outline
survey of the forces, moral and physical, that have resulted in
modern civilization, and in the formation of the state system
of Europe and America. Another term is divided between
Political Economy and the Constitutional Law of England and
the United States.

THE DEPARTMENT OF RHETORIC

Is regarded as an organic whole whose reciprocally dependent
parts are :

L The Laws of Thought, or Logic.

2. The Laws of Expression, or, in the abstract. Rhetoric^
in the concrete, Literature — both, of course, presupposing, for
the English student, a minute and thorough acquaintance with
the English Language.

3. The Laws of Utterance, or Elocution.

In accordanpe with this conspectus, the student is taught
from the outset of his college course, to analyze his mental
processes and adapt his words to his thoughts, his tones and
gestures to his words. Particular attention is paid to the study
of the English Language in its origin and development, and
in its use by such writers as Chaucer, Shakspeare, Bacon and
Milton — whose works are studied with the same care as those of
Horace, Sophocles, Plato and Homer.

In connection with this department, orations are pronounced
before the University, by students in the third term of the

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

Junior, and the first and second terms of the Senior year — each
student being required to prepare and deliver at least one
oration in each term.

During the Freshman year, there is a regular weekly exercise
in Phonetic Analysis, Phonography and Elocution. Members ot
the Junior and Sophomore classes are required to present
original essays or oral dissertations twice, at least, in each term.
These essays are freely used for class-room illustration of
Rhetorical excellences and defects.

THE DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAGES

Embraces a course of at least two terms in French and two
in German for every student who is a candidate for a degree.

While the philological study of these languages is held
constantly in mind, such colloquial drill is given as may
prepare the student for using them in the business of life.

THE DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS.

During the first two years of the College Course, the classes
have a continuous drill in Pure Mathemati(5s, beginning with the
generalizations of Higher Algebra, and closing with the Calculus.
Then follow Mathematics as applied to Natural Philosophy and
Astronomy. While the disciplinary exercises of the student are
necessarily abstract, it is the design of the officers in charge of
this department to show, by lectures and illustrations, that the
formulas of Mathematics are the keys of natural phenomena,
and that they underlie the practical arts of life. It is further
believed that Mathematics, like Politics, are best learned in
their historical development. The discovery and history of
formulas are, therefore, made the frequent theme of class-room
conversations.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE.

In the Department of Natural Science, instruction is given by
Lectures. Zoology and Physiology are studied by the Senior
Class during the first term. An outline of the general principles
of Zoology, embracing the characteristics and methods of classi-
fication of the animal kingdom, is followed by a more special
study of Human Physiology and Anatomy, with constant
reference to the structure and functions of the inferior animals,
seeking thus, by making it a study of comparisons and analogies,
to develope the existence of a comprehensive plan in organic
nature. Constant attention is given, in this department, to
the principles of Hygiene.

During the first terra, a course of lectures is given to the
Junior Class on Chemical Physics, followed, during the second
term, by a course of daily lectures on General Chemistry.
The properties of the elementary bodies, and their more
important combinations, are fully illustrated by experiments in
the lecture room. Special attention is given to the economic
and industrial applications of Chemical science. Frequent
opportunities are afforded for visiting the various manufacturing
establishments of the city, in which Chemical processes are
practically applied.

During the third term, a course of daily lectures is given to
the Senior Class on Geology, illustrated by Guyot's wall-maps
and the extensive Lithological, Mineralogical and PalaeontoTogical
Collections of the Cabinet, representing all the explored portions
of the earth's crust.

ANALYTICAL LABORATORY.

To supplement the instruction given to undergraduates in
General Chemistry, a Laboratory has been provided and
c 33

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

furnished with the requisite apparatus, for the use of those who
may wish to pursue a more extended course of theoretical and
practical Chemistry, by conducting their own experiments and
investigations, under the direction of the Professor.

Special students will be admitted to the Laboratory for
instruction in the theory and practice of Chemical Analysis,
qualitative and quantitative, the application of Chemistry to
Agriculture, Pharmacy, the Mechanic Arts, etc. For further
particulars respecting this department, application may be made
to the Professor of Chemistry.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.

It is the aim of the Faculty, in connection with the discipline
of the intellect, to inculcate a pure morality, and the great
truths and duties of Christianity. The public duties of each day
are opened at 9 o'clock a. m., with reading of the Scriptures and
prayer, in the University Chapel. The students are required
to attend, unless specially excused by the Faculty.

In the Greek Department there is a weekly recitation in
the Greek New Testament.

Weekly prayer meetings are held under the auspices of the
Young Men's Christian Association, in a room, centrally situated,
which the Trustees have provided for that purpose ; and, by
each class, at the close of the Saturday morning recitation.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places of
worship, at which their sons, or wards, are expected regularly to
attend on the Sabbath.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

GEOLOGY AND MINERALOGY.

These Cabinets, containing over 40,000 carefully selected
specimens, are an encyclopaedia of the sciences which they
illustrate. They were collected by Professor Waed, during six
years of extensive foreign travel, and during many careful visits
to a large number of the most fruitful American localities.
Having been compiled, from the first, upon a plan which
contemplates the most complete illustration of every point in
these two departments of inorganic nature, it is believed that
they offer opportunities to students of these sciences, unsurpassed
in the country.

The Cabinet of Geology commences with a collection of over
3,000 rocks, arranged in orders and families, in explanation of
the science of Lithology. Every rock species, as recognized by
the latest authors, is contained in this series ; and all points of
interest in technical or economic Geology are amply illustrated.

Another series of rocks presents those which are, to some
extent, characteristic of the several Geological formations.
Other series are Geographical in their character, and show the
student the mineral composition of some typical Geological
region.

The Lithological section of the Cabinet also contains a
valuable series of rocks, collected by Prof. James Orton,
illustrative of the Geology of the Andes.

The collections of Fossils are from the standard localities
in Europe and America, and represent the animal and vegetable

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

life which covered the surface of our planet during each of the
great Geologic periods.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is, that it contains plaster
copies, perfect in form and dimensions, of all the well-known
genera of fossil quadrupeds.

A section of the Geological Cabinet embraces a series of
models, maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fossils,
intended to illustrate the lectures which are given upon these
subjects.

The Cabinet of Minerals is equally rich and comprehensive.
It begins with several extensive series of specimens intended
to illustrate the subjects of Crystallography, and the physical
properties of minerals, and contains about 5,000 choice specimens,
representing four-fifths of all the species known.

CABINET OF ARCHEOLOGY.

The foundation has been laid for an Archaeological Cabinet,
by the purchase of a small, but well-authenticated collection of
flint and bronze implements from the drift region of Abbeville
and St. Acheul, in France. To this cabinet some specimens of
the stone implements of the American Indians have been
added ; and it has also been enriched by a very choice collection
of stone implements from the vicinity of Copenhagen — the
genuineness of which is attested by the most eminent Danish
archaeologists. Contributions to this cabinet are respectfully
requested.

LIBRARY.

The Library of the University is open daily, from 8 to 9 a. m.,
and on Saturday, from 10:15 to 12 a. m., for consultation and for
the drawing of books. All the students have free access to the
Library, and are aided in consulting it by the Librarian and

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

Other members of the Faculty. Especial pains is taken by
card-catalogues and indexes of periodical and miscellaneous
literature, (all of which are brought down to date, and open
to every student,) to make the contents of the Library
practically available.

THE RATHBONE LIBRARY FUND,

The gift of Gen. John F. Rathbone, of Albany, amounts to
twenty-five thousand dollars, the interest on which is appro-
priated to the increase of the Library. In the purchase of books,
the preference is given to those works which are demanded by
the ofiicers and students for the successful prosecution of their
inquiries in the various departments of study.

RECITATIONS AND EXAMINATIONS.

The recitations are held from 9:15 a. m. to 12:15, each class
having three daily exercises of one hour. The number, or
length, of these exercises may be increased at the discretion of
the Faculty. On Saturday, the classes attend in the lecture-
room but one hour; and that, rather for instruction than for
recitation.

Examinations are conducted by a combination of written
and oral exercises ; and in the presence of a Committee of the
Faculty. Students pursuing an Eclectic Course are required
to pass the examinations of the departments with which they
connect themselves. No student is admitted to examination
whose absences, during the term, exceed a certain per-centage.

Examinations are held, on each study, at the close of the term
during which it has been pursued. Examinations for delinquent
students are held on the third Saturday after the beginning, and
the third Saturday before the end, of each term.

PUBLIC EXERCISES.

1. Prize Declamations by the Sophomore Class, on the
Monday evening preceding Commencement.

2. Commencement, on the Wednesday preceding the Fourth

EXPENSES.

The University has no dormitories, being conformed, in this
respect, to the German, rather than the English model. Parents
who send their sons to the University are recommended to
secure for them, during their College course, the influence of a
Christian home, so far as this is practicable. Rooms which
aff'ord ample accommodations for two students, can, however,
be secured, in buildings designed especially for this purpose, for
$1.00 per week. Boarding can be obtained in private families
for from $3.50 to $5.00 per week. The Janitor of the University
will furnish its patrons with all necessary information respecting
rooms and boarding.

Tuition, per term, including incidentals, $25.00.

The rules established by the Trustees, with reference to the
payment of tuition, require the settlement of all hills at the
beginning of each term y that students in the Eclectic Course
pay full tuition ; and that orders for tuition on scholarships be
presented as soon as received. No deduction is made for
absence.

A large number of students find profitable employment in the
city, in teaching private pupils and classes, and in various other
occupations ; thus enabling them to provide in considerable part,
for the expenses of their education. Students who have practical

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

acquaintance with any of the useful arts, are able to procure
constant and remunerative employment in the city.

Indigent students for the ministry, regularly approved by
churches, receive assistance from the New York Baptist Union
for Ministerial Education, and, under certain conditions, free
tuition from the University, which has set apart 40 scholarships
for this purpose.

Other indigent students, of good character, are occasionally
assisted from funds at the disposal of the President.

Parents and guardians are earnestly requested to exercise a
careful supervision over their sons, or wards, and to discriminate
between necessary and unnecessary expenses. Experience proves
that nothing has a more unfavorable influence upon a student's
conduct and habits of study, than tlie unrestrained use of
money.

PREMIUMS, EXTRA STUDIES, ETC.

THE DAVIS PRIZE MEDALS.

The sum of |1,000 has been given to the funds of the
University by the Hon. Isaac Davis, LL. D., of Worcester,
Mass., the annual income of which is, by the direction of the
donor, to be expended in purchasing two gold medals of unequal
value, to be given to the two members of the graduating class
whose orations, on Commencement Day, shall exhibit, respect-
ively, the first and second grades of excellence in thought,
composition and delivery combined.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

THE STODDARD PRIZE MEDAL.

Professor John F. Stoddard — himself a distinguished Mathe-
matical teacher and author — has given to the University the
endowment for a gold medal of the value of one hundred dollars,
which is to be awarded to the student in each graduating class,

attention can be diverted from their regular studies without
detriment, are encouraged to pursue studies additional to the
required curriculum, under the direction of the Faculty, with-
out competition for premiums. The successful prosecution of
such studies — which will be tested by careful examinations — is
distinguished by honorable reference in the annual catalogue of
the University. The intention to study for Honorable Mention,
and the course of study to be pursued, must be approved, in
advance, by the Faculty; and no Honorable Mention will be
given for studies which are not fairly equivalent, both in quantity
and quality, to a daily recitation for one term in the department

in which the student presents himself for honors.
